Fujifilm's x100 series has changed the perception of what a compact camera can deliver from the very beginning. The X100F continues the trend of a 24.3 mp X_Trans CMOS sensor lll, X-PRO processor, smooth physical controls and fast auto focus that allows you to count on the camera delivering images in class with a SLR camera. At the same time, it is small enough to easily fit the jacket pocket.

The X100F is equipped with Fujifilm's popular X-Trans sensor without low pass filter. The lack of lowpass filter helps the sensor to detect sharpness from even the smallest details. With a solid 23mm FUJINON lens (equivalent to 35mm), you will not have the compromises that can occur with a zoom lens, allowing you to get maximum sharpness from the sensor and your images. With a maximum ISO of 12800, the X100F is capable of giving you good pictures even when it's bad.

With 91 AF points, it's easy for the camera to find focus, especially in difficult lighting conditions. Autofocus uses both a contrast-based technique that is very precise and 49 phase-detecting auto focus points in the center that provide a very good speed. For even more control, use a grid that gives you a total of 325 AF points. Add a 8-second-frame shooting and the start time in just 0.5 seconds, so you can capture volatile moments on time.

With a clear joystick inspired by Fujifilm XT2, you can quickly switch where you want to have the focus point. Shutter speed, aperture and exposure compensation are set directly on dedicated buttons, a popular feature of the Fuji X series. The ISO speed is the same as the analogue cameras, lifting the steering wheel up the shutter speed and adjusting the ISO number there. If you want to change the ISO speed via a standard input control, this also goes. The controls are predominantly on the left side of the screen, which allows you to handle the camera with just one hand.

The X-Trans sensor has a total of 15 color simulations of different analogue FUJIFILM styles. With the X100F you will get Provia, Velvie, Astia and even Acros, a black and white silum ring with a very special type of noise handling for a good grain amount even at high ISO, which is only possible with X-Trans CMOS ll / lll and X Processor Pro. If you're unsure what simulation you want, you can convert the RAW images later in the camera and add the movie simulation you want.

The X100F uses Fujifilm hybrid browsers known from the X-Pro series. Via a slider you can switch between optical viewfinder and the digital viewfinder at 2.36mp, depending on what is best for the situation.
